Technical Tuesday: Driving with Google
Google maps is a great application and one that pretty much everyone already has on their phone. But did you know that most people don’t really use it? I don’t know why… It’s honestly pretty cool to use. My favorite thing about Google Maps is the Explore Nearby. I love to use it when I am in a new town or just want to see something new in my own city. It gives your events and also let’s you use the Google Search by just selecting a button that’s relevant to what your looking for. You can also add in places that you travel to often and check the commute…

Trip to Disney: Where the Magic comes alive.
I will be going to Disney again very soon…. Like in 18 days. But I have never planned the actual trip. Usually I just go up for the day or stay with family that is already there. MyDisneyExperience: MyDisneyExperience is an App and also part of the Disney Website. I recently went on there to plan my trip and found some really cool things. Getting everything on either the website or the App and switching between the two is really easy. I was looking for a room to stay in for my moms birthday and I saw an email from Disney saying that I could get a room for a…

How to configure the New Gmail.
How often do you clean out your email? Personally, I try to clean my email/gmail out every week. I receive 150 emails a day, many of them are just sale ads… and all those stupid things that you need an email to sign up for. But recently I have had a problem with Gmail. I cant seem to get it cleaned. I used to have it set up to where there were 3 tabs. Priority, Promotion and _______ I don’t remember what that one is. But anyway! The problem is that Google updated Gmail and now I cant seem to even search for a specific email. After much playing around…

Geek, Wish, Cute, Mama, Home….Whichever you call it.
Do you shop online? I know that I do. But I also have 5 wish list on Geek. What is Geek? What is Wish? What is Cute? What is Mama? What is Home?

The Description of the Geek App reads like this: “Get trending products at 50-80% OFF what you would pay at your local stores. Get the…

Did I just buy a 50.00 paperweight?
Have You ever bought something online and thought…Hopefully this product will work when I get it. 🙂 Well, I just did. I bought a Toshiba Laptop t1700 for 50.00 off eBay. The laptop is supposed to come with Ubuntu already installed on it. Now I am not a computer tech but I am looking into the A+ Certification. Did you know there are questions about Linux on there? I didn’t… I have never used a Linux based system. So… since my funds are limited (due to bills and such) I had to think out of the box on this one. I borrowed a computer that doesn’t work from a friend…

Gamers Welcome to the Geekdom
Sadly I am not a gamer…not really by any means… I am that person who sits back and watches the other people play. I am that person who you don’t want playing Halo, Call of Duty, Battlefield 1, or Black Ops 3. I am that person who tries to not die 5 minutes (sometimes 30 secs) into the game, and if I do survive more than a minute. I become really happy and charge forward without a thought. I can remember when my love of video games first started. When my soul filled with the joy and amazement that I could do things in other worlds that I personally could never…
